I thought this was pending another appeal. I am in Blackpool myself on Saturday as it's Winter Gold on the Heritage Trams, so if there's been no definite news by then, I'll update on what I see.

So despite the decision of the TC to revoke his licence he's still applied to increase the VA?


RE: Oakwood Travel (Classic Bus North West) - T42 PVM - 25/01/2017 23:57

Correct!


RE: Oakwood Travel (Classic Bus North West) - NorthernCounties - 26/01/2017 08:52

He's still running. There's a post on Facebook today informing about delays to 24 service

So how is he still getting away with it ?


RE: Oakwood Travel (Classic Bus North West) - NorthernCounties - 28/01/2017 20:52
